Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The boss walked to Su Qing and looked at the girl inside with dark eyes. He cupped his fists and spoke in a cold voice. Although he said it was a request, his tone was threatening. It was an order.
Su Qing looked at him indifferently. Her beautiful eyes were as cold as ice, and her tone was light.
“Here, the poison is free, and the antidote is 1,000 taels.”
The old man gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
“Young lady, forgive people when you can.”
“So what if I don’t forgive you?”
Su Qing raised her eyes and asked the boss mockingly.
“Boss, don’t talk nonsense with this woman.”
Third Brother folded his arms, revealing two bulging muscles. He shouted at his eldest brother, looking like he would charge into the battle. However, he had suffered a loss just now, so he did not dare to enter the room rashly. He stood outside the door and shouted at Su Qing.
“If you can, watch me smash your bones.”
Su Qing slowly stood up from her seat and walked towards the door. She didn’t walk very fast, as if she was taking a stroll. However, a terrifying aura pressed down on the two people outside the door with every step she took. It was as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them, forcing them to retreat.
Eldest Brother’s eyes darted around. Someone with such an imposing manner was not an ordinary person. This woman was good at using poison, and her martial arts were unfathomable. Even if he and Second Brother joined forces, they might not be her match.
“Miss…”
Before finishing his sentence, he saw his second brother take out a dagger and launch a sneak attack. He was so close, and this attack was bound to hit. Boss was furious. He was not at home. When would his second brother change his recklessness?
He hurriedly went to pull his second brother, but he was still a step too late. Before he could see Su Qing lift her foot, his tall and muscular second brother was kicked flying. The eldest brother hurriedly went to grab his second brother, but this time, he could not pull him back. He heard a bang and watched as his second brother was kicked down again. He fell and bent over, screaming in pain.
“Miss, aren’t you being too ruthless?”
Su Qing kicked up the dagger Second Brother held and kicked it at Boss. Boss dodged, and the dagger was stuck in the handrail of the stairs. The entire blade was stuck in, leaving only the handle outside.
Su Qing placed her hands behind her back, as if she had not moved at all. She looked at the eldest of the three with a dark expression, and her voice was calm but filled with killing intent.
“Remember, this dagger will bleed if you provoke me again.”
The boss wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead. He couldn’t lose the battle. He still cupped his hands at Su Qing.
“Alright, we are not as skilled as you. Please leave your name, and we will pay you a visit in the future.”
Su Qing looked at him contemptuously, not giving him any face.
“Do you think you deserve to know my name?”
The boss choked and said,
“Good, good. I will remember today’s humiliation.”
The deputy general following Su Qing led two soldiers and escorted the pained Second Brother upstairs. His eyes were sharp as he looked at the Boss who had just threatened Su Qing and scolded him,
“So what if you remember it? This is the Great Xia Kingdom, not a place for you to behave atrociously.”
“Sir, we only had a few words. We didn’t cause any trouble.”
Seeing the soldiers arrive, the boss seemed to have changed into a different person. He cupped his fists at the deputy general, and his attitude was incredibly respectful.
“Miss, are you alright?”
The deputy general ignored the matter and walked up to Su Qing to ask her with concern.
“Thank you, sir. I’m fine.”
Su Qing shook her head. She knew that this deputy general had been following her all this while. The reason why she fought with these outsiders was to show him that she was not a spy.
“It’s good that you’re alright. Miss is alone outside, so you must be careful. If you have any problems, you can look for me. My name is Lu Xing, and I’m the deputy general of this city.”
Lu Xing looked at Su Qing with bright eyes. He was not confident he could kick such a tall, muscular man down the stairs. That kick just now was too cool.
There was such a strange woman in the Great Xia Kingdom. This girl looked thin and weak, but she was mighty and unyielding. She had extraordinary strength and was highly skilled in martial arts.
“Thank you, officer. If there’s anything difficult, I’ll have to trouble you.”
Su Qing’s attitude towards Lu Xing was neither servile nor overbearing, and her face was calm.
“Which room are you staying in? The officials want to check.”
Lu Xing nodded at Su Qing, then turned around and ordered the foreigners with a dignified expression.
Seeing the man who scratched his bloody gourd, he grinned. This girl’s poison was so scary!
The boss frowned, and his eyes darted around. He could not let these officials search his room. He stepped forward and cupped his fists at Lu Xing.
“Sir, please be magnanimous. We are all good people who do business. Our brother has offended this girl just now, so we can compensate.”
“What are you talking about? Is there anything in your room that you can’t tell anyone?”
Lu Xing glared at them and ordered the two soldiers behind him,
“Watch them.”
The leader took a step forward anxiously. Two soldiers drew their knives and pressed them against his neck.
“Don’t move. If you move, I’ll kill you.”
The boss was extremely anxious as he watched Lu Xing enter his room.
Lu Xing searched his room for a long time before he came out with a map and slapped his boss’ face.
“What is this?”
The boss gritted his teeth and did not say anything. Su Qing looked at it curiously and realized that this map felt familiar.
“Whose mansion is it?”
Lu Xing saw that he didn’t speak and slapped him again. The eldest glared at him angrily and gave his second brother a look. The second brother suddenly attacked the two soldiers guarding him.
When Lu Xing was distracted, Boss rushed over and snatched the map. Before Lu Xing could react, he tore it into pieces and stuffed it into his mouth.
“Motherf *cker.”
Lu Xing was furious. He punched and kicked the boss, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not open his mouth. He watched as the map was swallowed by him.
Lu Xing angrily ordered the two soldiers,
“Bring him back for interrogation.”
However, it was useless for him to shout. The two soldiers did not have the upper hand against Second Brother, so they could not come over to help Lu Xing.
Lu Xing was dealing with his boss alone, and he was even more flustered. This person was skilled in martial arts, and his attacks were vicious. No one knew what he was wearing on his hand, but when he was hit, there were a few bloody wounds.
Lu Xing was beaten back. Afraid that these people would run away, he shouted at the workers who were scared silly,
“Hurry up and report to the commander. If these people run away, you will be held accountable.”
“Yes, yes.”
The worker was so scared that he ran down. Su Qing was about to return to her room, but she stopped when she saw that Lu Xing and the two soldiers were no match for the two foreigners.
Are outsiders bullying their country’s soldiers? How could this do?
Su Qing frowned. She had a good impression of Lu Xing. He had just helped her so that she would help him this time!
Su Qing joined the battle, and the situation immediately turned around. She grabbed Second Brother first, lifted him, and threw him to the ground. Before Second Brother landed, he saw that Su Qing had caught him. His eyes were filled with despair. This was the third time she had thrown him off the building today.
A group of generals walked in from outside the door. The leader was the commander of Jingshi Dao, Yan Shikuan. The second brother descended from the sky and landed at their feet..
